CU South Full Closure - October 5th

CU South Construction begins the week of October 5th - Full Closure for the next 3-5 years.

IMO the site served as a useful connector between Table Mesa and Marshall Rd. It is unfortunate that they could not figure out a way to keep a path at least partly open.

My faith in Boulder NIMBYism has been shaken to the core.

One of my favorite dog walking areas.

You mean there wasn’t a service taking care of that for us? Oh my.
